Hello group, I updated version -01 of the Homenet prefix assignment draft.
Changes since -00 are: - Add a paragraph specifying that Route Information Options must be included in router advertisements, providing in-home prefixes information. - Lost Delegated Prefixes are advertised up to 2 hours (In agreement with SLAAC and RFC7084). - Deprecated Delegated Prefixes (preferred lifetime = 0) are not used for new assignments (Unless configuration states otherwise or no other prefix is available). - New **proposal** for autonomously generated ULAs. If no IPv6 prefix is available, ULA generation is a ‘SHOULD’. The proposition also deals with network splits. Please notice that the change concerning the ULA generation is a hot topic. This is a proposal, trying to provide a solution to the different concerns expressed on the dedicated thread: Comments are welcome.
